I'd like to get to novice commando but I'm barely getting any combat xp, I have 13800 and you need 40000!!!! I've got the unarmed skill tree done and am working my way through tka but I'd like to get commando so I can use a flamethrower and rocket launcher but HOW AND THE HECK DO YOU GET COMBAT XP. I'm seriously getting hardly any when I'm fighting. What did you guys use as in weapons and such and what did you fight against???

Any Radiant players can contact me for grenade. Non-Commandos can use C12's and you can get upwards of 500 Combat XP for each kill - probably much more if it's something big and you've got some help.


Just give me 1 day and I can get you your crates of grenades. I would assume a grenade will get you moving along pretty quickly in that area.

Yes, grenades are the only thing I am aware of that will help the combat xp rise a little faster. Don't bother with any thing other than C12's while trying to get Novice Commando.

If you don't like the 40k for novice then you'll really hate the Field Tactics tree... rofl

i think the trick is,


hit it with a grenade, then the health shots. you still get full Combat XP as you havent actually taken anything off of its health with your pistol. this way you can take out tougher targets.


it might be the other way round, have a look through the commando guide. there are some useful tips in there.

it doesn't matter when you bleed it.

Basicly lay on some/a bleed, bleed damage doesn't get assigned anywhere, it's ignored for all exp purposes. So the bleed will knock 3k off your 6k ham target.

Now just throw C12 grenades at it, these get combat exp just like a pistol gets pistol exp or unarmed gets unarmed exp, so you kill the 5k ham target with grendades, get 1500 combat exp AND 150 combat exp that you'd normally get.

Or you can run around newbie cities 1 throw killing the lowbie mobs for 2-500 combat exp

Yeah, it's Chong in-game and I know we've met already. Your grenades will get started in a few hours for certain.


Any others trying to grind their way to some Combat XP? Let me know and I'll make your crates.


What about you masters? Want some Protons? I've cleaned out my inventory and whipped up about 30 single-stacks of Protons for as low as 800 cr and as high as 1000 cr each. You WILL NOT beat that deal anywhere. The only problem is, they're not in crates.
